"Captivate: Conversational Secrets To Be Instantly Likeable, Make Unforgettable Impressions, And Never Run Out Of Things To Say" by Charlie Houpert 2014 | EPUB | 41 pages | ASIN: B00OC3DWBA | English | 0.1 MB

Have you ever had a conversation that changed your life?

You might not realize it, but they happen all the time.

Think back to the job interview you nailed (or blew). The date that went perfectly (or broke down completely.) Or the random encounter with that person who turned out to be your best friend (or the countless others that didn’t). Mere seconds of conversation have the power to alter the course of your life.

It’s miraculous then that we are never taught HOW to conduct conversations. How to navigate them so that we get more of the jobs, dates, and best friends we want. It’s as if the world believes amazing conversational skills can’t be learned.

Captivate shatters that belief. Inside you'll learn:

How to keep conversations going without running out of things to say and facing the dreaded awkward silence

How to create interesting "getting to know you" conversations without slipping into boring interview mode and turning off who you're talking to

How to start conversations with strangers and approach people you don't know

Real life examples of great (and terrible) conversations

The two modes of conversation that allow you to connect with anyone, even when you don't have anything in common

How to finish a conversation so people walk away planning on reaching out to you
